Mallory waited.

[aTOMiC]

He stood silently, shuddering slightly as an innominate chill gradually worked its way past his thick leather coat and soaked into his slowly beating heart.

[wayfriend]

Whilst muttering curses, his breath creating plumes of mist in the crisp, gelid air, Mallory forced himself slowly into motion, angling downward and slightly away from the trees toward the roadway that he knew lay beneath the newly fallen snow.

[wayfriend]

Mallory pressed on, struggling for hours through the knee deep snow until he reached the edge of the forest and broke out into the clearing that surrounded the castle.

[dANdeLION]

But the castle was not there.

[aTOMiC]

Mallory was stunned and lurched to a halt, his heart racing, breathing labored.

[wayfriend]

Then he looked the other way, and the castle was there after all.

[aTOMiC]

Mallory was confused to the point of exasperation but put the apparent discrepancy out of his mind and launched himself toward the castle's entrance.

[dANdeLION]

As he got closer, Mallory realized the truth; thecastle was a hologram.

[aTOMiC]

He continued to approach and as he drew nearer he saw that the hologram was directly in front of the actual castle which was only a few feet away.
